Healthy, Safe Glow

Coco Chanel introduced the Tan to the fashion world. In 1923 she returned from a Paris Vacay all dark and glowing and instantly the tanned look was famous.

Back in 1923 they didn't know much about skin cancer and the harm the sun actually does to your skin (think Something About Mary). No girl likes wrinkles and leather face so many of us have taken to using self tanners. But what self tanner is best? Self tanners do work differently on everyone’s skin so you might have to test with a couple to find the right one for you.

This new product Sevin Nyne created by Lindsay Lohan and Lorit Simon (who is the air brusher to the stars!) is natural and has so many benefits for your skin. This product is an exotic mix of fig, coconut, goji berries, and chardonnay extracts.

Sevin Nyne is stain resistant, streak free and has a yummy scent!

It is exclusively sold at Sephora.

KK's Workout DVD's

I love researching all the new workout dvd's that celebs have out!

Kim Kardashian's Fit in your jeans by Friday just came out and I am dying to know if anyone has tried any of the 3 dvd's yet?

On the site it states you will have a cute backside in less than 5 days if you choose to follow the The Ultimate Butt Body Sculpt! On this dvd the moves consist mostly of squat, lunges and quad work in a fast paced sequence.

Amazing Abs? Is that your goal?? You should look into the Amazing Ab Body Sculpt. This works your abs and burns cals!

And then we can't miss Cardio....yuck! Anyways you can do the Butt Blasting Cardio Step to raise your temp and get that glorious booty!

Sole In the City = Shoe Love

What girl does not love shoes!?! If you don't then you are missing out!

The best is when you try on that pair of shoes that gives your foot the sexiest look with the perfect amount of toe cleave. Ahhhh shoe shopping is the best!

Because I love shoes so much I read Sole In the City daily (along with my other celebrity gossip sites!). Not only does she keep us all informed on what shoes are acceptable for this season we also get a little shoe history thrown in there sometimes. Not to mention our favorite celebs footwear is always discussed!

Go check it out....you will fall in love with this site :)

Almond Goodness

I started baking with Almond Flour last year. It is the only flour I use to bake with because it is Gluten Free (I have a wheat allergy) and it has a low glycemic index.

I make so many wonderful treats with Almond Flour it is amazing!! I also use Agave Nectar as my sweeter as it also has a low glycemic index and it doesn’t harm you like sugar does. NO Sugar in my house!

Almond Flour is high in protein and low in carbs so it makes a wonderful staple to fun snack foods!

Below are the recipes I will make almost weekly! Most of the recipes are from this AMAZING site I found - Elana's Pantry

Cinnamon Almond Cookies (Vegan)

Chocolate Chip Cookies (Vegan)

Jam Pockets (Vegan)

Simple Almond Bread (So good toasted with nut butter or jam)

Try some of these out and let me know what you think!

Jazzy Rice Cake Addiction

Happy Sunday Everyone!

Sooooo, I am addicted to Rice Cakes. Yup I am! Rice cakes with Almond butter and a light smear of Organic Raspberry jam (Fruit Juice sweetened OF COURSE!)

I have been looking for a snack food that will keep me full and tastes great....I found it!

I use Organic Brown Rice cakes so I know I am benefiting from the whole grains ;)

Now go try it in replacement of those chips I know you want to eat! Beach ready bodies here we all come!!!

Stand By Me

I was sent this video this morning and it put a smile on my face so I thought I would pass it on!

Everyone loves the song "Stand By Me" and this video takes it to a different level! It is so wonderful and soulful. The video was created for a foundation called Playing For Change: Peace Through Music.
